We are calling for the Scottish Government to make defibrillators a legal requirement in public buildings to reduce Scotland’s 1500 cardiac arrest deaths in the community each year. Every minute a person with a cardiac arrest has to wait for a defibrillator or CPR cuts their chances of survival.

We also want targets set to boost the number of Scots with basic CPR and defibrillator training and an online map of all defibrillators.
